Manuel Pellegrini: 'It is important for Sergio Aguero to score'

Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini sings the praises of striker Sergio Aguero following his hat-trick in their 6-0 thrashing of relegated Queens Park Rangers.

Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini has praised striker Sergio Aguero following his hat-trick in their 6-0 thrashing of relegated Queens Park Rangers.

The Citizens were dominant in the first half as goals from the Argentine forward and Aleksandar Kolarov put them in firm control of the match.

Aguero scored twice more after the break to seal his treble, while James Milner and David Silva also got on the scoresheet to help City confirm their place in next season's Champions League.

Pellegrini told Sky Sports News after the game: "I think for Sergio Aguero it is really important to score.

"He wants to be the top scorer this season but I think it's also the way he is playing. He is working a lot more during the game, moving more and receiving more balls."

Aguero's hat-trick at the Etihad means that he has 25 Premier League goals this season - five ahead of nearest rival Harry Kane.
